Hi Folks!

I always have trouble with installing a new OS -- I would be so
surprised if I didn't hit a glitch somewhere. I hope you wouldn't mind
seeing if you might have some ideas that would help. Thanks.

System:

Tyan Trinity AT100 Soket 7 Motherboard
128 MB RAM
AMD K6-2 450MhZ CPU
ATI Rage Video Card
10 GB WD Hard Drive

I was running W98 on this, but I checked the Windows XP System
Requirements, and it seems that there's plenty of capacity to run XP,
so I bought an OEM disk.

After the text setup is done and the computer reboots into GUI mode,
I've gotten as far as Region and Langauage settings, entered the
Product Key, and gone up to about 31 minutes remaining. The monitor
shut down and started up a few times, so I tried a different video
card. I deleted the partition, reformatted, and installed all over
again. Same problem with a different video card.

I've got the motherboard stripped to only the video card, and I've
turned off all USB settings in my BIOS. I can't beleieve that it has
trouble with two different video cards . . . but that's just the kind
of thing that always seems to happen to me.

Any ideas?

Thanks very much,

Jimmy
